My comment about Jim Thorton being in the Eastern Media::D led me to wonder how many Forumites are on the E Coast as it seems lots of Y'all run into each other at meets.So where are you from.Also,I know many of you want to remain anonymous,but I'd like more people to fill out their profile.People talk about how they did at a meet,but without a name I can't look them up.
I live outside Washington, D.C.
Me too. Always have, probably always will. Love it here, except for the heat/humidity in July.
I grew up in those parts (just south near Richmond) and I started dreaming of living in the Phoenix area around my junior year in high school ... probably while lifeguarding on one of those hot & humid July days. It took me 12 years after leaving Virginia to make it to Arizona and, yes, IMHO the "dry heat" at 115 is much better than a 90+ degree, 90+% humid Virginia day.
Howver, a Virginia early fall or mid spring day can be pretty close to paradise. Completely different beauty though in both parts of the country.
